I hope you leave lots of room for the limitations on your personal experience. 16 years is a long time, subjectively speaking.
I don’t like it when I see what appears to be handwaving in response to someone who is upset and in the middle of a thing, and you’re a little close to that here, in my opinion.
Realize it takes months of work leading up to that enrollment window to prep communications and materials as needed.
Just like every other area of human endeavor? We can only start it in small windows and there are hard expiration dates, just like in nature, right? If you don’t set out for California by May 1, you can’t go until next year. If you don’t go for a swim in the summer, all pools are closed to you in winter. That’s just how life works!! Hard lines are a required part of health care. They are, from what you seem to say, inevitable and for the best. But maybe they aren’t? I don;t see the logic to it? Why is it on me to make my companies life easier? It won’t have a heart attack and die if it has to do the paperwork a different way. I could (not likely, but I have a heart). Please excuse the sarcasm, and I don’t mean to rant at you personally but likely have, but who is being helped with arbitrary lines again?
